“It was just everyday living. With me, it was fighting, more fighting, and more fighting. Life then was simply the way it was: ordinary, not bad, not good, just regular. No stress, no strain. Of course, no one had much of anything, but we didn't know that we were poor.” (unknown)

“There were many tough guys to play in the scripts that Warner kept assigning me.

Some roles were mean, and others were meaner.” (unknown)
